X‐linked sideroblastic anemia due to ALAS2 intron 1 enhancer element GATA‐binding site mutations [PDF]
X‐linked sideroblastic anemia (XLSA) is the most common form of congenital sideroblastic anemia. In affected males, it is uniformly associated with partial loss‐of‐function missense mutations in the erythroid‐specific heme biosynthesis protein 5‐aminolevulinate synthase 2 (ALAS2).

Congenital sideroblastic anemia: A report of two cases
Sideroblastic anemia, comprising of acquired and congenital forms, is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by the presence of ring sideroblasts in the bone marrow. Congenital sideroblastic anemia is a rare condition which is mostly X-linked,

Severe Macrocytic Anemia Associated With a Novel ALAS2 Mutation: A Case Report and Literature Review
X‐linked sideroblastic anemia (XLSA), caused by pathogenic variants in ALAS2, typically presents as microcytic anemia in males. However, heterozygous females occasionally exhibit an atypical macrocytic phenotype, often leading to diagnostic ambiguity and

Missense SLC25A38 variations play an important role in autosomal recessive inherited sideroblastic anemia [PDF]
Background Congenital sideroblastic anemias are rare disorders with several genetic causes; they are characterized by erythroblast mitochondrial iron overload, differ greatly in severity and some occur within a syndrome.

X-linked sideroblastic anemia (XLSA) is caused by mutations in the erythroid-specific 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALAS2)gene. Hemizygous males have microcytic anemia and iron overload. A 38-year-old male presented with this phenotype (hemoglobin [Hb] 7.6 g/dL, mean corpuscular volume [MCV] 64 fL, serum ferritin 859 μg/L), and molecular analysis of ...

Acquired Sideroblastic Anemia: An Exploratory Comparative Statistical Analysis Between Clonal and Non-clonal Cases [PDF]
Sideroblastic anemia (SA) is a rare heterogenous group of inherited and acquired bone marrow disorders. We retrospectively studied the clinicopathologic characteristics, cytogenetic findings, and disease outcome of patients with acquired sideroblastic ...

A rare case of isoniazid induced sideroblastic anemia [PDF]
Sideroblastic anemia is a rare cause of anemia. Most of it accounts for the genetic cause, while drug induced is still uncommon. Our patient, a 20 year old female, is a known case of right frontal tuberculoma on ATT presented with complaints of ...

Abstract Introduction. Pyridoxal 5' Phosphate (PLP) is the cofactor form of vitamin B6 in ~60 human enzymes. The first enzyme of the heme biosynthesis pathway, delta-aminolevulinic acid synthase (ALAS), that catalyzes the condensation of glycine and succinyl-CoA to form 5-ALA the sole precursor of porphyrins and heme, is ...

Erythroferrone (ERFE), the erythroid regulator of iron metabolism, inhibits hepcidin to increase iron availability for erythropoiesis. ERFE plays a pathological role during ineffective erythropoiesis as occurs in X-linked sideroblastic anemia (XLSA) and ...

Iron loading anemias are characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis and iron overload. The prototype is non-transfusion dependent ß-thalassemia (NTDT), with other entities including congenital sideroblastic anemias, congenital dyserythropoietic anemias,
